Factors affect the amount of energy stored in an electric field between two charges

Explanation:

1.Electric potential energy, or Electrostatic potential energy, is a potential energy (measured in joules) that results from conservative Coulomb forces and is associated with the configuration of a particular set of point charges within a defined system.

2.The energy stored between the plates of the capacitor equals the energy per unit volume stored in the electric field times the volume between the plates. In electrostatics, viewing the energy as being stored in the separated charges or viewing it as being stored in the electric field leads to the same results.

3.Electric potential is a location-dependent quantity that expresses the amount of potential energy per unit of charge at a specified location. ... If the electric potential difference between two locations is 3 volts, then one coulomb of charge will gain 3 joules of potential energy when moved between those two locations.
